01. Regnið (The Rain)

Music & lyrics by Heri Joensen
Ódn og náttin svørt, ið ravnin við sær hevur ført
Svarta flog, ið ber mær boð at fylgja við

Við á eina ferð í aðra verð, tí nú at ódn og ilsku ber
Illgongd leið at bróta eið og allan frið

Einsamallur út í

Regnið
Vindin
Myrkrið

Frammanfyri

Bergið
Brimið
Stormin

Ravnur vindi reið

Tíð mín vinur ver og meg um ár og aldur ber
Burtur frá um ægin blá og norðanvind

Leiðin liggur út har lagnan lær og garmar goyggja eftir mær
Ódnarljóð har stormur stóð um fjallatind

Vindi reið eitt ravnaflog
Bar við sær tey sorgarboð
Og eina myrkursgerð
Boðar bráa burturferð

Ta longu vøkunátt
Veingir tóna toruslátt
At royna sáttargerð
Kanska bøtur einaferð

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:
Storm and the black night that brought a raven with it
Black flight tells me to come along

Along on a journey to another world because storm and illwill is immannent
Trecherous path to break an oath and all peace

Alone out into

The rain
The wind
The darkness

In front of

The cliff
The surf
The storm

Raven rode the wind

Time be my friend and take me over years and age
Away across the sea and northern wind

The path lies out where destiny laughs and hounds bark at me
Hurricane sounds where a storm stood on the mountain peak

The wind was rode by a ravens flight
Carried along the news of grief
And a dark deed
Tells of sudden departure

The long waking night
Wings intonate thunder
To try to make settlement
May help at a later time

02. Heljareyga (Eye Of Hell)

Music & lyrics by Heri Joensen
Mín dýrmæta tið
Hvar fer hon og hví
Droymandi mong og long ein løta leið

Tann áin, ið rann
Har jarðklettin fann
Máaði burtur túsund ára skeið

Undir aldarjørð
Hugahellan hørð
Sum við Beinisvørð
Mín hugur hellan var

Barda bergið frítt
Brýtur brimið hvítt
Tekur tíðin sítt
Eitt heljareyga sær

Stjørnur standa hátt
Eina øld uttan egna megi og mátt

Øll ókomin ár
Hvørt farið eitt vár
Upphavs og enda gáta gerst mar greið

Um hvarv hvørvisjón
Og sveik meg øll vón
Hugurin sær í heljareygað seig

Stjørnur falla brátt
Og í kvøld stígur lagnan um mína gátt

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:
My precious time
Where does it go and why
Dreaming many and long a moment went by

The river that ran
Found the bedrock there
Eroded away a millennium

Under the ground of ages
The hard bedrock of my mind
As by Beinisvørð
My mind was the rock

The beaten bare cliff
The white surf breaks
Time takes what's its
An eye of Hel sees

Stars stand high
For an age, without own force and might

All uncome years
Every passed spring
The riddle of beginning and end is clear to me

If the vision faded
And all hope betrayed me
The spirit sank into the eye of Hel

Stars fall suddenly
And tonight destiny steps over my threshold

03. Lagnan (Destiny)

Music & lyrics by Heri Joensen
Onki er so balt
At tað verur ikki alt
Nú nærkast ein vetrarbreyt
Lagnan tilverunnar treyt

Tá Nornir kalt
Hava dagar allar talt
Tó endaleys ævin er
Náðileyst at enda ber

Dagarnir flúgvandi fara
Fornøld eftir øld
Eydnan man fløða og fjara
Mannalagnan køld

Vónloysi laðar ein varða
Fækkast daga fjøld
Dagarnir flúgvandi fara
Mannalagnan køld

Væna hjá mar ver
Til at hvíldarkvøldi ber
Og veturin kaldur kom
Ástin tilverunnar trom

Tó frystir enn
Heitur eldur hjá mær brenn
Tá kavin har kaldur lá
Hitar blíða eygnabrá

Myrknandi ókomin ár
Tigandi fellir eitt tár
Ástina fornminnið fjalir
Tigandi tónleikatralur

Tikin av kaldari tøgn
Stíg inn í søgu og søgn
Brenn sum ein Nykbrandur hátt
Í lofthavið dottin á veturnátt

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:
Nothing is so bold
That it doesn't become all (that it doesen't end someday)
Now a galaxy approaches
Destiny the condition of existence

When Norns coldly
Counted all days
Though endless eternity is
Mercilessly towards end it goes

Days fly by
Ancient century upon century (ancient age upon age)
Fortune flows and ebbs (rises and falls as the tide)
Destiny of man is cold

Hopelesness piles up a cairn
Decreases the mass of days
Days fly by
Destiny of man is cold

Fair stay with me
Until resting evenign comes
And cold the winter came
Love the edge of existence

Though it still freezes
Warm fire burn with me
When the snow lay cold
The warm stare heats

Darkening uncome years
Silent falls a tear
Love the the ancient site conceals
Silent slave to music

Taken by cold silence
Step into history and legend
Burn like a shooting star
Fallen into the atmosphere on a winter night

04. Feigdin (Mortality)

Music & lyrics by Heri Joensen
Feigdin (Mortality)

Logar bragdareldurin innast í míni sál
Mær í bukandi bringu brennur eitt bál
Og mín trá stendur á tann hetjunnar sal
Kendi ongantíð at eg hevði eitt val

So líkasæl stjørnufjøldin ørandi fjar
Alla tíð Kappin kaldur alheimin sær
Yvir heimin hann kastar kaldastu tøgn
Berið skjótt at tí skamm er ævinnar søgn

Eitt stjørnuskøt, náttarlot, eru til bert eitt bil

Ein feigdarferð
Er mín í hesu verð
At váðaloga leiðin ber
Har hvør ein feigur fer
Til ongin eftir er

Vekir meg í nátt hvassa norðanvindanna kall
Tá mín stjørna av náttarhimninum fall
Brøttum bergi eg stóð og stardi útav
Sá eitt veingjaflog hvørva norður í hav

Tey tykjast forðandi frammanfyri mar fjøll
Standa eftir tá ævin loksins er øll
Er tá eingin at ganga við mína lið
Hvat er eftir tá alt er farið framvið

Fánað fornminnis mynd
Neyvan upp á navnfrægdar tind
Og nú setandi sólin lækkar

Søkk í gloymskunnar hav
Kaldur undir ísandi kav
Eingin veit hvar ið feigur flakkar

Alt í kaldari tøgn
Eftir standa søga og søgn
Um tann dag tá ein drongur dapur

Gekk tey lúgvandi fjøll
Heim í Heidna Hetjunnar høll
Vágan vinnur, og vágan tapir

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:
Flairs the flame of achievement deep in my soul
In my beating chest burns a fire
And my desire is set for the hall of heroes
Never felt that I had a choice

So indifferent the stars dizzyingly distant
All time Orion cold the universe observes
Over the world he throws coldest silence
Be quick about it because short is lifetimes tale

A shooting star, night breeze, (we) exist only a moment

A fatal journey
Is mine in this world
Towards Váðaloga the journey is set
Where every mortal goes
Until no one remains

Wakes me tonight the sharp northern winds call
When my star from the night sky fell
A high cliff I stood watching down from
Saw a flight of wings disappear north across the ocean

They seem blocking in front of me mountains
Remain when the age finally is all
Is then no one to walk by my side
What remains when all has passed by

Faded picture of ancient site
Hardly upon the mount of fame
And now setting the sun goes down

Sink into oblivions sea
Cold under icy dive
No one knows where doomed may wander

All in cold silence
Behind remain history and legend
About the day when a boy gloomy

Walked the weary mountains
Home to the hall of heathen heroes
Who dares wins and who dares looses

05. Vetrarbreytin (The Galaxy)

Music & lyrics by Heri Joensen
Eitt vesalavætti í vónloysi gekk her á jørð
Regnið var kalt og stigini tung
Armur drap hovur í tøgn

Tá stakkalastjørnan sást bleiktra á hválvinum hvít
Náttin var kvirr og landið var myrkt
Armur lyft andlit títt upp

Tá vón er úr eygsjón

Lagnur liggja eftir á
Okkum ævinleikin fá
Náttarhimin hylir mína trá
Lagnur liggja eftir á
Vetrarbreytin yvir agin blá
Okkum avinleikin fá
Náttarhimin hylir mína trá
Lagnur liggja eftir á
Vetrarbreytin blá

Stjørnufjøldin tíðarbrandi brá
Mannafjøldin fá
Stjørnufjøldin tíðarbrandi brá
Gravartøgnin grá

At avnokta gud tað fall mær í lut
Av summum var sagt at betur var tagt
Hildið tátt um tílíka tign, so lemjandi ein lygn
Tortrúgvin og vísindin vá

Um úti er kalt og málið er fjalt
Á myrkari nátt at falla í fátt
Missa vón er ikki eitt val, ið kemur uppá tal
Fornhetjan, ið brandinum brá

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:
A poor homeless hopelessly walked on this earth
The rain was cold and the steps heavy
Poor hung his head in silence

Then Venus was visible twinkling white on the firmament
The night was silent and the land was dark
Poor hold up your face

When hope is out of sight

Destiny's fall behind
Eternity take us
The night sky conceals my desire
Destinies fall behind
The galaxy over the blue ocean
Eternity take us
The night sky conceals my desire
Destinies fall behind
The galaxy blue

The star gathering swung the sword of time
Man gathering few
The star gathering swung the sword of time
The grave silence grey

To deny god was my lot
By some was said that better was to stay silent
About such highness, so crushing a lie
Scepticism and science won

Even if it's cold outside and the goal is hidden
On a dark night to fall into despair, to loose hope
Is not an option ever discussed
The ancient hero that swung his sword
